Dr. Mitchell R Waskin

I ignored my plantar fasciitis for too long and it got so bad that my active lifestyle was severely impacted. The improvement from Dr Waskin's sonic wave therapy coupled with custom orthotics has been remarkable. I wish I had met Dr. Waskin years ago so I would have understood the downside of creating/ignoring Chronic Pain.

Wife & I visited Dr. Waskin's office. Was examined & scheduled for fitting for new inserts. The inserts we received were made of what we would call "wear out" material. For the amount we paid we at least thought they would be vinyl. Have to take the blame for this one one for not asking about options. And the Dr nor the technician who fitted us mentioned available options. Make sure you ask whether material options for your inserts are available. Otherwise a great dr

Truly professional. Wonderful office personnel.

Dr. Waskin and his team were great! He was the second doctor (the other was from a different practice) that we've seen for the same issue. I'm so glad we came here. He was very attentive and thorough. I feel we're in the right place and will finally start to heal! His team, notably Ren (sp? sorry) and Jasmine, were wonderful. It was the end of a busy day, and they were so friendly, helpful, and happy that they cheered us up and made our own frustrations disappear! Thank you Ren, Jasmine, and Dr. Waskin!

I went to Dr. Waskin for a painful ingrown toenail. The staff was friendly and efficient from the start. Yolanda was very reassuring, answering all my questions before the procedure. Dr. Waskin had the perfect combination of professionalism and humor, and before I knew it, the nail was removed. I highly recommend Dr. Waskin and the Foot & Ankle Center for excellent care.

MY RIGHT FOOT WAS SHAVED DOWN BY ANOTHER DOCTOR IN COLONIAL HEIGHTS.I MADE APPOINTMENT WITH DOCTOR WASKIN AND SAW HIM FIRST ON 1/19/22 AND TODAY AGAIN.DR. WASKIN AND HIS STAFF HAVE BEEN SO PROFESSIONAL. I WAS IN EXTREME PAIN AND HE HAS HELPED ME SO MUCH. I WOULD STRONGLY REFER HIM TO ANYONE

My appointment with Dr, Waskin for the first time was great. He listened to me when I explained my foot problems and fixed them the same day. I would recommend him to any of my family and friends.

Dr. Waskin is great! After 6 months of limping and being in terrible pain I went to Dr. Waskin and after a few treatments I am pain free!

I have seen Dr. Waskin multiple times over the last few years, and I am always impressed by how calm, caring, and professional he is every time. He has given me the best experience possible under sometimes stressful conditions, and I would recommend him to anyone!

Dr. Waskin is kind, understanding and very knowledgeable. He listens to his patients and clearly explains the diagnosis and course of treatment. He has a friendly and helpful staff. I highly recommend Dr. Waskin!

Very professional and efficient

Dr. Waskin was very professional, clearly knew what he was talking about, and was willing to listen and tailor care to our needs and comforts. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone.

I am very happy with Dr. Waskin's treatment of my painful right heel at the Foot & Ankle Center. They took an x-ray, diagnosed the problem, explained options, and treated me in the same visit! I walked out of that one visit feeling better. By the time I drove home, I was able to walk without any pain. Oh yeah, they also showed me stretching exercises I can do at home to prevent the same problem from occurring. Super happy with Dr. Waskin. Highly recommend him.

Dr. Waskin is a breath of fresh air. I originally had my foot operated on by another doctor. It did not turn out so well. I went to Dr. waskin in desperation. He took x-rays and did not believe we had a good chance of fixing my problem He recommended inserts and they have been great for years. He always makes you feel like you are his only patient.

I was seen by Dr. Waskin on Aug 4, 2020 for an ongoing foot issue and also a new foot issue. I've seen Dr. Waskin on multiple occasions before the Aug 4th visit with no issue. On this particular visit, we discussed my ongoing issue and how we might proceed this time around and I also presented to him my new issue. For the new foot issue, he suggested a boot to wear. I was hesitant 1. because I wasn't sure I would wear it and 2. because I was worried insurance might not cover it. Dr. Waskin assured me TWICE during that visit that he has NEVER not seen insurance cover this boot. So, I took his word as a professional and brought the boot home with me. It takes me about 30 minutes to get home and about 45 minutes after that, I call my insurance just to verify they will cover it. They told me no (I gave them the procedural codes that were given to me by billing), so I call Foot & Ankle back to let them know and ask if I can return the boot since I LITERALLY just left with it. They would not allow me to return it. Now, I can understand if I had the boot for at least an entire 24 hours and tried to return but I tried to return it LITERALLY 1.5 hours later and they would not let me. The reason they stated is because I tried on the boot before leaving the office. 1. I did not see the boot being taken out of a box so the boot could have been used to begin with for all I know 2. The office has you to try on the boot before you leave SPECIFICALLY so that they can say later that they cannot accept the return. I've spoken to Dr. Waskin on the phone about this particular issue and he assured me AGAIN that he has never seen insurance not cover the boot! Well, insurance is covering the boot but only partially leaving me with a $200 bill. My biggest issue here is the way Foot & Ankle does business. Having patients try on the boot before they leave to ensure no returns and then LYING saying insurance will cover it, when insurance will only cover a small portion and then not returning phone calls to address patient concerns. During these covid19 economic times when people are dealing with A LOT being confined in a home, anxiety heightened, can't visit loved ones and people you know dying, you would think this company would operate in a much more humane and patient friendly manner; THEY DO NOT! If this issue isn't addressed, you can rest assure that I will not return to this practice again. Your choice. $200 or continue business which I'm certain will exceed $200 over time since that is the only thing you all respond to is MONEY AND NOT A PERSON'S MENTAL WELL BEING OF COVERING AN UNEXPECTED $200 COST!

My mother and I both are so pleased with Dr. Waskin. He and his staff are amazing, friendly and caring. We highly recommend him!

Dr. Waskin is the best dr I have seen for my feet. Very gentle and concerned. I would highly recommend him above any other foot dr out there.

I was pretty nervous going in, but Jessie and Dr. Waskin were absolutely AMAZING! They both put me at ease, walked me through the procedure step by step and answered all my questions.The office staff was super helpful scheduling my appointment and follow up.

Dr Waskin was very thorough with his questioning and physical assessing in order to give me an accurate diagnosis. As a bonus he has a good sense of humor and is personable which is always a plus when a doctor's appointment. Highly recommend!

Dr. Waskin has an excellent post-op pain protocol. A polar care machine made it easy to keep ice on my foot and a small q-ball infused a lidocaine type solution into my incision (both applied in the OR). I took only 4 Post -op pain pills.

Three weeks ago,  I saw Dr. Mitchell R.

I have been seeing Dr. Waskin for years. He is wonderful even when he injects cortisone into your heal to relieve your pain.. Always very thorough in his exam and explanations. I will continue to refer Dr. Waskin to anyone thats needs to see a foot specialist. I would not see anyone else!!

It was my first time ever going to a foot doctor. I had an appointment today and I almost canceled from being nervous about going. I have heard not so good stories about foot doctors.Well the bad stories I have heard does not apply to the Foot/Ankle Center. Everyone was very professional and the Doctor was very pleasant and had warm hands. The lady that cut my toenails was also great. Everybody that works there is AWESOME!

I wasn’t 100% sure what to expect before my first appointment, so I was pleasantly surprised when it was a breeze! The nurse I first met was so great at making me feel comfortable and Dr. Waskin was great to work with. He came in and we were already sharing laughs and he did a great job building rapport. The entire visit was very informative, comfortable and thorough. Dr. Waskin took his time answering all my questions and I never felt rushed. And on top of that, there was little to no wait time at all! Will absolutely be going back!

I was recommended to Dr Waskin by my husband whom he had treated for plantar fasciitis. He warned about the long wait times and the lack of apology for them and what seemed like unnecessary Xrays of the foot. I too had to arrive early, my appointment was over one hour late and I had the unnecessary X-ray. He really didn’t listen to me and seemed more interested in getting me to buy orthotic shoes from his organization. The practice is very crowded and it seemed that we patients were processed as quickly as possible. Given my husband’s experience, I could not have been more disappointed.

AWFUL. Waited over an hour for my appt. No personality, esp no sense of humor. Non apologetic to my time wasted. Very argumentative and if you don't take his advice you are ignored. Said he was the director of the practice in his "infomercial" but he isn't. Just a bully.

45 minutes late for 8am appointment - no apologies or concern from Dr. Waskin about being late so early in the day. Price gauging practices - saying x-rays needed for broken bones when clearly there is no indication of any breaks. Office Manager and Corporate Office will not return phone calls. Poor Management of this facility.

Saw one of Dr. Waskin's reviews mentioned price gouging and I had a similar experience that i would like to share with future patients. I went in to look at a sore growth that has developed on bottom of arch of both feet. I explained the problem to nurse and answered all other generic questions asked at beginning of appointment before Dr. comes in. She then told me an X-ray was standard procedure for all patients with foot pain to make sure it wasn't a broken bone. She walked me down to x-ray machine and i asked her if she thought i had a broken bone? Clearly I didn't since swelling has developed on both feet and I knew exactly when it started on both feet. Nurse told me she didn't think there was any broken bones, but she was just following procedures. I declined the x-ray since I knew broken bones were not a possibility -- sounded like price gouging to me.

I recently had a problem with Dr. Waskin being very late for an 8am appointment that I was required to be there 30 minutes early for. I just want to know how late can Dr. Waskin be to an 8am appointment before he thinks it is not okay to inconvenience the patients. Can he come in at 9am and feel it is okay? Can he come in at 9:30am and feel it is okay? I can't get answer from office, him or his corporate legal person that was supposed to call me a week ago. I was told by the Office Manager that The Foot and Ankle Center compliance officer would call me, but she hasn't. I have left a couple additional messages but she still hasn't called. I assume there must be lots of compliance issues with the practice or there is simply no concern for the patients.

Sad to say this doctor was so rude to me and very unprofessional.I went in for a tear in my foot tendon and he injected me with no local Anesthesia or Anything to numb the skin.i have had several Cortizone shots in my heels and knees where the doctors always tried to make it less painful as possible not this doctor and if this isn’t how he does things at-lease he could of explained to me what to expect and offered me some ice or something even the nurse looked nervous for me .Im not one to complain but this could had been avoided but he was was running behind schedule and I guess decided I was a big girl and could handle the pain.But rest assure me and my coworkers will avoid this practice.Not saying he is a bad doctor maybe I got him on a bad day but you should never cause a patient more pain if you can avoid it.

Dr. Waskin is grrrreat! I just met him today at my first visit there, and I am so grateful God directed me to the Foot & Ankle Center and to Dr Waskin. He is very patient, kind, professional and thorough! Natisha or Latisha (??) at the front check-in offered her bubbly personality while multitasking, which I wonder if she even realizes how her sweet disposition really puts others at ease...thank you.

Dr. Waskin is a very kind and considerate Doctor. A scary prospect to have foot surgery but he was very warm and reassuring... With a kind and helpful staff. Makes it a pleasant visit...

Dr. Waskin is a great doctor with a very dry sense of humor. Much like myself. He expresses real concern for my well being, making suggestions and providing care for my long abused feet.

About 20 years ago Dr. Waskin helped eliviate back pain and foot pain. So when I was having issues with a my foot again, I sought him out because I remembered the wonderful experience from before. Well he and his team did it again. Although I'm still healing, the outlook is bright. Always good seeing the staff and Dr. Waskin.

He is the most knowledgeable Dr. we have ever been to. His exam was very thorough & he knew immediately what the problem was & how to treat it. I felt at ease & not rushed. It was very apparent he cared about my treatment & outcome He explained everything & made sure I understood how the healing process should go & what I should expect.

I just love Dr. Waskin, he was very kind, treated both feet, very little pain. Listened to me and answered all questions in terms I could understand. I would recommend him to anyone in need. ... Oh , I love that red plaid shirt. Be blessed

Several years ago, Dr. Waskins surgically repaired a crippling bunion on my right foot, today it is absolutely perfect. 6 months ago, I had the same surgery on my left foot by a podiatrist closer to my home. I wrongly assumed that I would have the same miraculous cure on my left foot, even though the new doctor advised me very differently than Dr Waskins had regarding post operative activity. After the requisite healing period, instead of being pain free, my foot was hurting in several new places, and it WASN’T improving. I returned to Dr Waskins and explained that I had gone to a different doctor to repair my L foot, and that I was in agony. He immediately soothed my fears, and put me, AND my foot, back on track. My pain is almost gone, and I’m back to a normal life again. I will NEVER EVER EVER go to another podiatrist. Trust me, Dr Waskins is the BEST. Period.

Dr. Waskin is an exceptional surgeon and doctor. He just performed surgery on my right foot last week after having successfully completed surgery on my left in 2017. I researched extensively to find the best doctor to perform my bunion and hammertoe corrections, and I’m grateful that I made the decision to drive from Fredericksburg to Richmond for each step of the journey. The pain protocol that Dr. Waskin follows has prevented me from having serious pain. The education he, and his staff provide, along with the ongoing and after-hours support they offer, has given me peace of mind. Anytime I’ve had questions or concerns, he and his team have promptly and kindly addressed them. People can’t believe how great my left foot looks after surgery. I love to show it off and have women gasp and exclaim how much “better” it looks than the feet of their friends who did it somewhere else! I’m sure my right foot will end up with a similar result. More importantly, my feet will work better, I’ll be without daily pain, and I’ll have the support I need with orthotics and other care right there in this great clinic.

Dr. Waskin is awesome. I was having severe pain in my foot. He diagnosed the problem, surgically repaired my foot, and I am walking normally again. Great experience with his entire staff. I will definitely recommend Dr. Waskin to my friends and family.

Dr. Waskin is a really great podiatrist. I have severe anxiety about medical procedures, and he was very kind and helped me through the whole thing. He is very nice and funny and it helped to create an environment where I felt I could calm down. Totally recommend!

First of all, I was shocked that I was able to get an appointment so quickly when I called as a new patient. Dr. Waskin had outstanding bedside manner and was extremely knowledgeable. He took care of multiple issues with my feet in the same visit. He also did a thorough diabetic foot exam on top of fixing all my other issues. He took the time and explained exactly what was going on. He also wanted to make sure it was a good experience booking the appointment. What other doctor would even care?

I recently had an appointment with Dr. Waskin and was extremely pleased. The entire staff was caring and very helpful. Dr. Waskin spent all the time I needed to ask any questions and understand what might possibly be wrong with my foot. I would highly recommend him to any of my friends.

Dr Waskin was very knowledgeable and caring. After my surgery my recovery was as he explained and I can't wait to do my other foot!

I would recommend Dr Waskin to friends and family. I went to him for arthritis in both my feet, the pain was so bad it hurt to walk, he examined my feet and said he thought insoles would help them feel better so he sent me over to Sara, have not tried the inserts yet. Everyone in the office is so nice, the lady that checked me out heard me say I was hard of hearing and when I checked out she made sure she spoke so I could hear. I really do appreciate that.

Very nice and funny doctor always making me laugh

I have been seeing Dr Waskin for years. He is always knowledgeable and kind. He has years of experience, tons of patience, and allows plenty of time for explanation of diagnosis, treatment options and patient questions. A winning doctor!

He is the best??

I have been experiencing pain in my foot and made an appointment to see Dr. Waskin. The office personnel were very friendly and efficient as was the nurse. Dr. Waskin was very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. He explained what the problem was and the options that I have. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Dr Waskin is a friendly amiable doctor who hasn’t best interests in mind. I feel he is concerned and determined to resolve my health issue. He has a sense of humor and an amiable chairside manner. I would recommend him.

Very please with the service in Dr. Waskins office

Dr Walkins is great and very helpful and understanding except the wait is horrible every time I have gone I have had to wait over 2 hours just to see the doctor.

Would highly recommend Dr. Waskin. He was patient, took his time, explained everything in easy terms and is friendly too.

Dr Waskin's diagnosis and recommendations allowed me to go on my planned summer vacation walking through much of Europe with my family. Feet were in bad shape and in just 6 weeks the orthotics got me back on track. Thanks Dr. Waskin and team!

I have seen Dr. Waskins on 2 occasions. Both times I was impressed with his knowledge, bedside manner, and explanation of treatment options. He never gives the appearance of being rushed, listens, and takes the time to answer questions.

Ingrown toenail had me up at night crying. I have never been unable to take care of this myself but when it got red (I am also a diabetic) I broke down and made an appointment. He worked me in asap and did an excellent job. Great chairside manner. Love that office to death.

If your feet are supposed to carry you everywhere you need to go in life, then they better carry you to Dr. Waskin if you're having problems with them. I'm 66 years old and Dr. Waskin has performed five different procedures on my feet this year. My feet now make me feel like I'm 25 years old again.

Thank you, Dr. Waskins, for the excellent care you provided in my most recent surgical experience! I really appreciate your expertise, professional care, and of course, your "bedside manner". You have my complete trust, and I highly recommend you and your staff to everyone!

Excellent care and follow-up. This is not an easy surgery, and you need a lot of care, which Dr. Waskin provided. Thank you for all the home therapy, pain relief provided with cold therapy, etc. Definitely recommend getting orthotics when healed up...I delayed in doing this, but really if I had gotten this soon after healing would have been better on arch support.

One year ago I went to a podiatrist due to pain in my forefoot that caused me to stop running and to restrict my hiking. The doctor recommended rocker sole running shoes and to then jog rather than to run. Well, I could neither jog nor comfortably hike hilly or rough terrain. I recently saw Dr. Waskin who provided a different diagnosis of the problem. He suggested that I do a calf stretching routine to get me back into shape. After only two days of stretching I was doing much better! I will continue with the stretching routine and hopefully fully recover. Thank you!

Went to see office earlier this year and Dr Waskin preformed surgery on my foot bunion the end of May. Dr. Waskin was great with both the surgery and with the follow-ups during the healing process. I would definitely recommended him if you need to see a podiatrist

Dr. Waskin has seen me from a very young age, 7 I think, due to the bunions on both of my feet. He made sure I could get them removed as soon as possible, as they continued to grow and become more painful. In August of last year, we scheduled my first surgery date and followed through, he did an excellent job on correcting my bone and it now looks like I almost never had it. Because his work was more than exceptional on the first, we decided to go ahead and schedule a second surgery the next March for my left foot. The second time had fabulous results as well, and I can’t thank him enough for it. I’m now no longer embarrassed by how my feet look, and this past July I was actually happy to wear flip flops and sandals on the beach. To my knowledge, I am his youngest patient to date, and I love how Dr. Waskin still took the time to explain the proceedures and treatments with me in a way that I could understand, and I was always happy to go there because he and all of the other staff were so welcoming and helpful. Kat was my physical therapist, and she definitely helped a lot during my healing process. She made sure and always encouraged me to do my exercises every day at home, and showed me the proper way to do them if I wasn’t quite getting it right. I can’t stop recommending this place to anybody that might need it; it’s such a wonderful office and the people there are outstanding.

On 12/19/2018 Dr Waskin did surgery on my right big toe and he was so thorough and understanding. His bedside manner was great, he took the time to explain everything. If you’re in need of a good podiatrist I highly recommend Dr Waskin. I forgot to say that he can make you laugh when you’re feeling your worst!!

Steve Murphy's Review: After previously seeing 4 podiatrists and having 2 foot surgeries, I still had the same unbearable foot pain. After 2 visits with Dr. Waskin, the pain has been relieved, a life changing result for me. During my initial visit, he quickly located the source of pain that none of the other physicians had discussed. He was patient and thorough to explain and even apply a temporary trial that same day.

I was able to schedule an appointment within two days. My problem was diagnosed and a treatment plan was put into action that had me feeling better by the next day. I have continued to improve since my visit by following the doctor's instructions. Very friendly staff.

Dr. Waskin was pleasant and patiently addressed my problem and my questions. I was afraid he was going to suggest surgery as the first course of action, but he had other more conservative suggestions to try first. (Cream, arch supports, etc.) I liked his staff also.

Very nice doctor and staff. Almost a year ago I had 4 laser sessions for painful nail fungus, which cost $800. I precisely followed all at-home instructions; no change in fungus (only 1 toe, on 1/5 of nail). Apparently laser has 70% success and I was unlucky, but to see the dr. for a follow up costs $200 more. For the amount paid for laser treatments, a 5 min. follow-up appt. (involving no treatment) to discuss further options should absolutely be included. Feels like price gauging otherwise.

This was my first visit to see Dr. Waskin. He was very friendly, attentive, and took his time with me, explaining everything. His staff was very professional and friendly as well. I would recommend Dr. Waskin to anyone needing a great Podiatrist.

Dr. Waskin is the best!

Dr Mitchell Waskin, at The Foot and Ankle Center, is courteous and caring. I want not only medical expertise, but good "Bedside Manner". I am never made to feel rushed. He takes time to listen to my concerns. I am seen within 10 minutes of my appointment. His staff and he remember and greet you, unlike some doctors and offices that make you feel like you are not remembered from past appointments. They are all courteous and professional.

Dr. Waskins and his front office staff are superb! Jessica is always professional and friendly. I just went for my post-op appointment and had another great office visit. To keep swelling down and provide effective pain management, Dr Waskins recommended the ice pump machine combined with the medicine ball and that did the trick for me! I had my surgery on Dec 27th and by New Year's eve, I was off all pain meds and dancing using my handy dandy knee scooter for support. I am not bearing weight yet on the foot that I had surgery on but felt so good that I was able to celebrate the holiday with friends and family.

My 14 yr old daughter had surgery on her right foot in Aug. 2017 & left foot in Mar 2018 & Dr. Waskin is phenomenal. Great bedside manner! We love him & the entire team. Kat, in physical therapy, is wonderful too. Everyone there is fantastic to work with. I would recommend them 100% to anyone. We wont go anywhere else.

Dr. Waskin did a wonderful job with my bunion surgery. He was very attentive and explained all my options. I decided on the surgical route and although recovery took some time it was well within what he had indicated. What I was surprised to find out was that it was literally painless. He deserves additional stars for excellent pain management! I would definitely recommend him to others. Dr. Waskin did a wonderful job with my bunion surgery.

I was able to get an appointment with Dr. Waskin in a very timely manner. He took time to explain my diagnosis and his recommendation for treatment. He made sure I understood and that all my questions were answered. He explained exactly what was being done during surgery and made me feel very at ease. He was compassionate and reassured me that he was available if I had any questions after my appointment. He has a very calming and reassuring approach. I have the utmost confidence in Dr. Waskin.

I recently had surgery performed by Dr Waskin. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional and very patient service oriented. His staff was outstanding. I highly recommend him!

I highly recommend Dr. Waskin. One visit, new exactly what the issue was and was able to fix it immediately. Very warm and honest!

Dr. Waskin did a foot care overview for a Senior Wellness Day for the Senior Center of Richmond Center at a church on Brook Rd. It was very helpful, informative and education. His presentation gave me motivation to continue to see a foot doctor for what I thought was a minor problem. And now that doctor and I are addressing a minor problem before it got out of control. Thank you Dr. WAskin

I saw Dr. Waskin to get a second opinion on foot surgery that I had 6 months ago. I was concerned that something was wrong because I am experiencing more pain. My surgeon told me that I just had to give it more time. Dr. Waskin looked at the my X-ray, asked many questions, said that one screw was partly in the bone and partly in the joint and another was extending through the bone into the tissue and ligaments coming almost through the bottom of my foot. Then he looked at a C.T. Scan that I brought and confirmed this. He said that these screws had to come out and to go back to my surgeon, tell him this and to call him. Dr. Waskin is extremely knowledgable, compassionate, not tethered to the political mindset of the cover up and I believe very trustworthy. I wish he had done my surgery.

He performed bunion removal and surgery on three hammer toes on my left foot. He would never show me my x-rays and was very flippant toward my condition. He said if I was a young woman, he would have made my foot look "pretty". The recovery was horrific. Then bunion returned, my big toe is way shorter and has a screw in it that I constantly can feel, and the hammer toes and big toe are all pointing left and curling over one another. My foot is in constant pain a year and a half after this.

Excellent doctor in my opinion. Some of his front office staff were a little surly, but dr waskin makes the visit well worth your time. He was informative, attentive to all my questions, and very accurate in his assesment. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone.
